I swear I'm going to die on this hill. I just got disconnected from a match (not me, other players) three times and while yes, annoying, do I think those players deserve to be banned a whole day over it? NO. When there are people out there openly cheating, harassing and showing constant bad sportsmanship and you want to ban someone for a whole day for dc? No.

This probably isn't the right place and I apologize for that but is it possible for cheaters/hackers to disconnect you from games? I know my NAT settings are too strict but I swear I get disconnected at the most opportune times for my opponent.

I just don't feel that occasionally is "a lot." Non-toxic behavior does not deserve that severe of punishment.

Okay... then you accept the possibility that you might receive a 24-hr ban. You would agree that people who rage-disconnect three times in a row should receive a hefty penalty, right? And there is no perfect way to differentiate between someone who's internet gives out and someone who pulls the plug on their router. There are a lot more people who would abuse a more lenient system than would be benefitting in an innocent manner, e.g. poor internet connection. However, that still really isn't a justification for a more lenient system, since you're still negatively impacting peoples' games on a regular basis through willfully playing with a dodgy connection.
I agree a ban should be in place. I think 24 hours is too strict, especially considering internet disconnections.

I think there is a big difference between unforseeable disconnects and knowing that your internet is poor and that you can't manage a consistent, stable connection... besides that, I disconnect from badly-timed internet outages maybe once a month and, while it is annoying, I only ever receive a five minute matchmaking lock and I just pass the time by watching YouTube. It's really not that bad.
However, if you're disconnecting enough to be slapped with thirty minute or longer matchmaking locks on the regular, then you probably shouldn't be playing and should start looking into better internet and/or equipment.
I can play a whole day without disconnecting at all. Then I can play a day where I disconnect 3 times. Because those three times happen, the next time it happens I get a 24 hour ban. Is 24 hours really necessary? Better equipment is not always available to people. I have the best internet in my area. I don't have access to my router, therefore my NAT is too strict. Like I said before, I'm not going to quit playing because of the possibility out of 100 games it MIGHT disconnect 3 times.

Anybody technically could disconnect at any moment, on accident or on purpose because life happens. That's a possibility going into all games.

Oh wow thanks for the responses! One thing I've been doing, is letting the survivors bleed out. I do this usually when I accidently hit a person who came off the hook recently, and I assume their teammate will save them, not that they will bleed out. Besides not hitting them in the first place, is there anything else I can do?

It is highly possible I'm extremely paranoid, but I feel like I've been dealing with hackers a LOT lately and it's really messing with my game. Please somebody deal with this.

They are actually too soft. I don't care if you didnt' ragequit and it's because of your internet, you are screwing over your teammates when you dc whatever the reason might be and there should be a punishment that escalates the more you do it. If you have bad connection you shouldn't play a team multiplayer game.
If I can play 100 matches only to get disconnected 3 times, why wouldn't I play? 97% of the time I get to be like everyone else and enjoy the game the way it was meant to be enjoyed except when yes I too, have to deal with someone disconnecting. Is it inconvenient? Yes. Do I think they're a huge baby for rage quitting? Yes. Do I think they're losers who shouldn't be allowed to play the game because their internet service isn't superior? No. A ban is important. An escalating ban is understandable. This harsh of a ban for disconnects is unjustified.

The great majority of disconnects I see are immediately after downs, hooks or grabs. They’re not internet related. And when the DC penalties are off the number of ragequitters is ridiculous. So no, the DC penalty for multiple disconnects isn’t too harsh.
I agree with this partly. I do think the number of rage quitters out number the poor internet connections greatly.

When you play with poor internet, you're willingly putting other people at the mercy of your risk of disconnection. It results in unfair games for everyone who is matched with you because you could just vanish at any moment, which in turn hurts the experience of everyone involved. Not to mention if you're playing Killer and you disconnect, you waste everyone's time by putting Survivors through another queue.
If I can play all day, three days straight, with only 3-4 disconnects I don't feel that I'm hurting anybody. I don't feel that warrants a whole day ban. I'm not constantly rage quitting. I'm not harassing anyone. I'm a fair player. I don't camp, I don't tunnel, I don't even loop. You have to wait for another queue, I have to wait a whole day. I love this game, and I know I'm not the only one. It shouldn't be restricted to those whose NAT settings aren't too strict. As dugman said, there are far too many more rage quitters anyways.
